答案

尊敬的楼主及楼上各位老师,我的看法不同,这句话没有错误,只是答案应该是D.
He needs to be told the truth.= The truth needs to be told to him.（他需要被告知真相.）
请楼主核对答案.
真的无语,许多人甚至高手解英语题像解数学题和物理题一样套用公式,我就纳了闷了,如果 He needs to be told the truth.这句话是错误的,那么,I want to be told the news .这句话又怎样呢?“sth + need/ want/require + doing/ to be done”这个句型地球人都知道,但它的主语是事物呀!
回答楼主的补充问题：
We need to tell him the truth = The truth needs to be told to him （by us）=He needs to be told the truth （by us）.tell 接双宾语,第二句话将直接宾语truth作为被动语态句子的主语；第三句话将间接宾语 him 作为被动语态的主语.您可以把 need to 整个看成一个助动词.
